We still arent sure of the mate,but we know there has been a hatch,a banding was planned,but the young already started to run all over the beams of the bridge,so it is not possible to band them at this time. Hopefully we can band them if they come down during fledging.  I will confirm with Mark the number of hatches.

This was a 2005 falcon, so it can't be Sabrina/Valiant. Wonder what falcon has the same numbers!

And it seems odd that he would "migrate" south west across the state...

And M/T isn't exactly his number...he's M/T* (the T is sideways)

Facts I found:  Sabrina was M/*T left sideways (that's why * is left of letter) Sabrina was banded June 1, 2006.   One of the USFW numbers used in Rochester in 2004 was 1687-01177.

Learn something new every day...never knew the * was supposed to indicate direction! Thanks!

More Facts: 1687-01184 was assigned to Juliet from Syracuse in 2005.  Back then DEC was using the USFW 1687 for females.  That year, there were 4 females in Syracuse.  They were all given *2/alpha letter just as those in Rochester.

Because numbers carry over from year to year, and Rochester was banded on same day before Syracuse, it is a possibility that 1687-01185 could have been used in Rochester the following year. Back then, females were black over red and they were given the 1687 band.

Can anyone confirm the USFW band number for Sabrina?

[Donna]

Thanks Joyce for all the info. Same 2 letters but sideways. Who knew, not me either Ei! The *

Can anyone confirm the USFW band number for Sabrina?

That's one bit of info I haven't found listed anywhere for NY.
